Cold Air Intake for Dodge Ram 1500 (1994-2001) & 2500 (1994-2002) 5.2L 5.9L V8 - Black

Give your second-gen Ram's legendary Magnum V8 the air it deserves with a complete cold air intake system—engineered for the truck that changed the pickup game forever.

More Power for the Big Rig Look

When Dodge dropped the second-generation Ram in 1994, it sent shockwaves through the truck world. With its bold big-rig styling inspired by semi-trucks and the Studebaker Transtar, the new Ram looked like nothing else on the road—and backed it up with the bulletproof Magnum V8 family. Your 5.2L (318ci) or 5.9L (360ci) Magnum was a torque monster from the factory, pumping out 220-245 horsepower and 300-335 lb-ft of twist. But the factory airbox was designed for quiet operation and cost savings, not maximum output.

This cold air intake system changes that equation. By replacing your restrictive stock airbox with free-flowing 6061-T6 aluminum piping and a high-capacity washable filter, you're feeding your Magnum engine cooler, denser air for up to 10% more horsepower and torque. You'll feel sharper throttle response, hear a deeper V8 rumble, and get the performance your Ram was built for—whether you're towing a trailer, hauling materials, or just enjoying that classic truck driving experience.

Key Features at a Glance

• 6061-T6 Aluminum Construction: Lightweight yet durable piping with chrome finish that resists corrosion and handles high underhood temperatures
• High-Flow Black Filter: Engineered for exceptional filtration while maximizing airflow to your Magnum V8
• Proven Performance Gains: Up to 10% increase in horsepower and torque across the RPM range
• Enhanced V8 Sound: Enjoy a deeper, more aggressive engine tone that matches your Ram's bold styling

Installation & Fitment

Installation is straightforward and takes less than an hour with basic hand tools—socket set and screwdrivers. The system is designed as a direct replacement for your factory intake components. After installation, disconnect your battery terminal for 10-15 seconds so your PCM can recalibrate for the increased airflow. Installation videos are available on YouTube if you want a visual guide.

Built for the Long Haul

The 6061-T6 aluminum piping is engineered to handle the heat and demands of hard-working trucks while keeping weight down. The chrome finish looks sharp in your engine bay and won't corrode from road salt or harsh conditions. The washable filter is designed for thousands of miles between cleanings—just rinse, re-oil, and reinstall, saving you money over disposable filters.
